Today was a new low of 124.4lb. Which is down .6 from my previous low of 125.0 back in December, lol. But seriously, I haven’t seen this number in 2 years so it feels good. I tried to take progress pictures, but I looked either the same or thicker.

In the MIRROR, I have much more definition around my collar bone and the weird fat pad over my lats is definitely shrinking. Also I need new pants. Some day I will have real definition that you’ll be able to see in a picture taken with a flash even when I’m blindingly pale.

I lifted this AM and then went to class for 2.5 hours and felt fine, go me! We were practicing blocking turning kicks and I took some naaasty elbow strikes to the shins and ankles... just another good reason to aim for the head! I'm a little leery about flying kicks because I have gotten my foot caught on top of a 5' heavy bag and I tweak my hip whenever I fall. On the other hand, that means I really could kick some people in the head. There's also the possibility of taking a flying leap into a fist a KO-ing myself, stay tuned!

Tonight's monster movie was "John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars". From what I saw (whilst simultaneously playing Animal Crossing and checking my email with my back to the tv) Ice Cube and Jason Statham play space-marines who go to a Misfits concert. There was screaming. Catski stepped on the remote and turned off the tv.
